What is discipline to you?

We ask people who train. One question, then they pick a card and answer whatever it says.

  • “The main thing is showing up on the days you don't want to. If I ever considered skipping a session, that was my switch: I have to do it now.”

    Lloyd · Climber, runner, Ironman

  • “It takes away your sleep. But you're still gaining something: being with your teammates in the pool at 5:30 in the morning, doing what we love.”

    Thomas · Competitive swimmer

  • “Discipline isn't focusing on the grade, it's focusing on technique. Not getting hung up when you plateau. Trusting the process.”

    Megan · Climber

  • “Discipline for me is doing the stuff you don't want to do. It's going to be difficult, but you know doing it benefits you, and your family as well.”

    Brad · Competitive swimmer

  • “When I set myself a goal, I do something every day towards it. However small, so we're moving towards that goal.”

    Simon · Runner
